Pedestriansfirst<p>“More than 1m cars sold in UK each year too big to fit typical parking space. Larger cars are more deadly in crashes than smaller ones, as they weigh more and have tall front ends that trap victims beneath them instead of knocking them to the side. They also pump more toxic gases into the air.” When does this madness end? <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Pollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Pollution</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Congestion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Congestion</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/JustWalk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JustWalk</span></a></p>
Pedestriansfirst<p>“The most beautiful village in England: how Bibury became a victim of its charm. Once a tranquil haven in the Cotswolds, Bibury now grapples with overtourism as hordes of selfie-snapping visitors pour into its narrow lanes.” The big mistake is to build more car parks which attract more cars. Banning cars would make people walk (or wheelchair) through this beautiful village which would cause much less congestion and encourage people to actually stop and use local businesses. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Congestion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Congestion</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Parking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Parking</span></a></p>
